Chapter 225: Arrest Ji Xuan
"Yes, the great general, he was assassinated by a villain and died in Ningcheng Prison. Wei Hongzhong said with red and swollen eyes.
"Ningcheng, just a county, dare to touch my nephew? Believe it or not, if I destroy Ningcheng, the sky is not yet bright?" Lan Shouyong said angrily.
He loves Lai Taisheng the most, if he hadn't taken care of him, Lai Taisheng wouldn't have been able to improve so quickly in the military. But now that Lai Taisheng's subordinate Wei Hongzhong has come to tell him that Lai Tai is alive and dead, how can he accept this?
When the territory of Da Zhao Wanli was at his fingertips, he hadn't shared it with his nephew, but he ushered in the news of his nephew's death, which shows how angry Lan Shouyong was in his heart at this time.
"The general naturally has such strength, but Ning Cheng ...... New...... The new county magistrate Ji Xuan, don't you know! He was arrogant and arrogant, thinking that he had won the top five in the ancient city, so he thought that Ningcheng had the final say.
In Ningcheng, he made trouble in Ningcheng, causing a miasma, and also harmed Major General Lai, saying that Major General Lai was greedy for military salaries, and arrested Major General Lai from Liu Zhensheng's old man on the charge of greedy ink.
When I want to lend a helping hand, it's too late, General, you must make the decision for Major General Lai!" Wei Hongzhong burst into tears, looking so sad.
Ji Xuan...... I've heard of this person, but I don't care who he is, if he dares to kill my nephew, I'll make him pay back a hundredfold. Lan Shouyong said coldly and angrily.
"Someone. β
"General, what are your orders?" asked the deputy general Liu Yu who walked quickly in front of Lan Shouyong from the staircase of the city wall.
"Immediately mobilize three thousand light horsemen for me, bypass Yanmen Pass, enter Ningcheng by water, and arrest Ji Xuan, the commander of Ningcheng County, for me. Lan Shouyong snorted.
"General...... This...... When is this? The three armies of Yanmen Pass have already been dispatched, and at the latest, the morning sun will rise tomorrow. Now that our army is unstable, and we have mobilized three thousand light horsemen to leave, what will this make the soldiers think?" Liu Yu disagreed with Lan Shouyong's transfer of people to leave now.
Although he didn't know what was going on with Lan Shouyong, he couldn't help but transfer people to Ningcheng to arrest the county order now.
But as Lan Shouyong's lieutenant general, he has the obligation to remind Lan Shouyong not to fight for will.
"Even if the 100,000 defenders of Yanmen Pass are united with the 150,000 troops of Dazhao. He didn't dare to encroach on the Yumen Pass in the slightest, you can rest assured. Lan Shouyong also knew that Liu Yu was doing it for his good, so he explained, "After all, the ghost clan has broken the front line and three armies, and the next target will naturally be Yumen Pass."
If the army coming from Da Zhao insists on attacking me, I have no choice but to open the jade gate and burn the jade.
Otherwise, they will obediently listen to my arrangements and listen to my commands. If I let them kill the ghost clan, they won't dare to have the slightest objection, otherwise I will give up the northern border of Dazhao to the ghost clan, hum!"
Liu Yu knew that Lan Shouyong had rebelled against the Great Zhao Imperial Court, so he didn't advise him anymore, he could only sigh, and then listened to Lan Shouyong's arrangement, and immediately began to transfer people to Ningcheng. Capture Ji Xuan.
After the three thousand light horsemen left, Wei Hongzhong knelt down again and said, "General." I followed General Lai many years ago when I was a small soldier, and now I am separated from General Lai by yin and yang, I hope to keep the general by his side, do a filial piety for General Lai, and hope that the general can take him in. β
"Hey, then stay!" Lan Shouyong finished speaking, and couldn't help but sigh. I don't know where my mind has gone.
......
"Boy, I found it, Wei Hongzhong, who appeared at Yanmen Pass five hours ago, and then went north. The purpose should be Yumen Pass, that's right.
However, the war at Yumen Pass is about to break out, so remember not to risk yourself. As the so-called gentleman is not too late to take revenge for ten years, there is no need to rush for a while. β
"Well, I will stay in Ningcheng, but there is still a question, can Sir help me find out who Lai Taisheng has a relationship with Yumen Pass? Or who among the rebel generals in Yumen Pass has a relationship with Lai Taisheng or Wei Hongzhong. β
"It's a trivial matter, it's okay, I'll check it out for you. After Fu Xiangzhong finished speaking, he opened the Celestial Master Seal and used his divine sense to quickly investigate who Lai Taisheng had to do with.
Soon he saw it, and sent the complicated network of relationships to Ji Xuan.
It turned out that Lai Taisheng's mother Lan Xin was the sister of Lan Shouyong of the Blue Flame Army, Lai Taisheng was Lan Shouyong's nephew, and Wei Hongzhong was his younger brother.
In this way, does the food loss case planned by Lai Taisheng have anything to do with this Lan Shouyong?
But it's unlikely, Lan Shouyong is the main station of one of the three armies, no matter how naΓ―ve he is, he won't take a hundred stone military salary to frame him, right?
In addition, Ji Xuan has no relatives with him, and he also has a premeditated rebellion, in this case, unless Lan Shouyong is stupid, there is no reason to attack him.
Ji Xuan recalled what Lai Taisheng said when he returned to the light, and he said, "How could I betray him?"
Obviously, this is not referring to his uncle Lan Shouyong, if it is his uncle, then why did Wei Hongzhong kill Lai Taisheng and then go to Lan Shouyong?
Lai Taisheng also said, "I am loyal to him, how can I betray him." β
He was in everything he said, and by looking at his look, he knew that he was not something he could just name.
If it was his uncle Lan Shouyong who instructed him, he could have said bluntly that I could not betray my uncle.
Judging from these points, Ji Xuan knew. The person who really wanted to frame him was not Lan Shouyong, but someone else.
This other person should have bought Wei Hongzhong a long time ago, which is equivalent to planting the banner of Wei Hongzhong next to Lai Taisheng.
Or some people covet the Blue Flame Army, hoping to open a breakthrough from Lan Shouyong's nephew.
So he bought Wei Hongzhong early, so that when needed, he would immediately activate this chess piece.
After pondering it so carefully, Ji Xuan found that a new problem came again, it was still the same question, who wanted to harm him.
Ji Xuan, who thought about it to no avail, could only shake his head.
Just when he was helpless, the old man sitting on the stone table and chair in the outer courtyard beckoned Ji Xuan to come over.
Ji Xuan's cognition of the old man in the past few days knew that this old man was not simple, so the old man greeted him, and he did not hesitate and strode over.
However, what made Ji Xuan a little puzzled was why the old man had just come to the county mansion, and Doctor Bian immediately packed up his things and left.
Before he came, he had no intention of leaving.
"Sir. Ji Xuan greeted.
"Sit, you are the master, I am the guest, you are welcome. β
"Huh. Ji Xuan just smiled and didn't answer.
"When the sky was slightly bright, I went out of the streets of Ningcheng, do you know what I heard?"
"Da Zhao sent someone to Yumen Pass?"
"That's right, and sent 150,000, including 50,000 Praetorian Guards, which is a big deal!"
"Hehe, so what. Ji Xuan shook his head and sighed.
